Submit some press releases

[curiousdannii]

With Kerkerkruip 9 I feel like the game is really ready for the prime time. We should submit some press releases to some gaming sites. (Perhaps after we investigate the initial round of bugs.) Please add more sites you think would be worth submitting to!

• http://jayisgames.com/
• http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/ (and in particular Adam Smith)
• http://indiegames.com/
• http://gamejolt.com/
• http://www.indiedb.com/ (More of a list site than a news site, but maybe still worth it)

I agree! But let's indeed wait a week or so and see if we need to iron out some bugs. E.g., Wade's bug report that I forwarded to you.

Also, before doing that, I'll make a "handy list of commands" page on the website. Would be good for newbies, especially given that I failed to have the Quick Start Card made. (Still on my todo list, but won't get done within a week.)

Could you update the beginner's guide pdf?

Also did you upload to the archive yet?

[curiousdannii]

We got a mention at indiegames.com: http://indiegames.com/2014/04/interactive_fictions_xyzzy_awa.html!

Could still be worth submitting for a feature article though.

Are we ready to start this?

[VictorGijsbers]

I fixed my dropbox, and will upload the files this evening. Shall I write
a press release and send it to you for discussion?

Are we ready to start this?

Sure that would be good. Some of these sites don't want too much though (I guess they want the product to speak for itself.) I'll be linking to your second LP video because it was really good.

[VictorGijsbers]

Uhm, I totally forgot about this. Will do it soon.

I already did two, and the others aren't actually news sites but more like databases I think. But we can still add Kerkerkruip to them.
